Apr-29-04		tpstar: 11. Nxg7!? sure is tempting (11 ... Kxg7? 12. Qh6+ Kg8 13. Bf6 mates) but probably inaccurate due to 11 ... Qxe4 12. Nd2 Qe5 13. Bh6 Nf4 and the Ng7 has no escape squares, or even 13 ... Qxb2 and the Queen defends g7. Still White played very well throughout, although I wonder about 27. Be1 Ng4 28. Rb8+ Kh7 29. Rf8 keeping the exchange, then 35. Bb6 Nxh2 (35 ... Bxe4?? 36. f3 Bd3 37. Rxd3) 36. Kxh2 Rxf1 37. f3 should draw.

Jul-06-07		benba57: As black, I would be scared skinny at move 12!

Jul-07-07		wouldpusher: Doesn't 19. Qxg4 lead to a Rook plus for White? (19. ... Nxg4 20. Bxc2)

Jul-07-07		Wolfgang01: 19. Qxg4? Qxb1!!
